Residents of Kanti in Muzaffarpur district say a gang called ‘Hasina’ is forcing a transgender person to lead bike riders before robbing them on NH‑27.
Local residents of Kanti, a town in Muzaffarpur district, have raised alarms about the presence of a criminal outfit they refer to as the ‘Hasina gang’ on National Highway 27. According to eyewitness accounts, the group allegedly compels a transgender individual to ride ahead of motorbike convoys, using the person as a decoy to halt the riders.
Once the bikers stop, members of the gang reportedly surround the vehicles and carry out theft, leaving victims shaken and fearful. The pattern of intimidation and robbery has reportedly created a climate of insecurity among commuters who regularly use the highway for inter‑state travel.
Authorities have not yet released an official statement, and police presence on the stretch remains limited. Residents are urging law‑enforcement agencies to increase patrols and investigate the alleged activities to restore safety on the busy route.
The incident underscores growing concerns about organized crime exploiting vulnerable communities and targeting ordinary travelers on major roadways in Bihar.
